The point is that you can’t just serve tokens without also training the next models. It’s an inseparable part of your costs, so naturally you can’t be profitable unless the price you are charging ALSO covers training.

Is that right? I think that you can serve tokens without training the next models. It would be bad strategy, but it would work. So it's an important question, are they covering their operating expenditure? If they are the business has legs (and it will be worth spending a lot to train the next models). If not, maybe not.
